ontic
Where it comes from
From Ancient Greek ὄν (ón, “being, existing, essence”) (stem ὄντ- (ónt-)) + -ic.
adjective more ontic · most ontic
- Ontological.
- Pertaining to being, as opposed to pertaining to a theory of it (which would be ontological). My descriptions are ontical—addressing the world we inhabit, the what and where and how and why of objects therein; my questions are not ontological in the sense of struggling (vainly) to answer the question of the being of things tout court.
